Are these the mileposts so your old-ass parents don't get lost while driving to the night beat?

"all right now" seems particularly out of place.

D3 T. Rex – Bang A Gong (Get It On)

Surprised they didn't use the Power Station version.

Sessions Album Discography, including Mellow Gold, Freedom Rock and Night Beat. They seem to have put out a lot of Smurf records.

― Choc. Clusterman (contenderizer), Monday, 30 April 2012 04:51 (thirteen years ago)

anyway, voted for t-rex. how could i not? was tempted by animotion though.

― Choc. Clusterman (contenderizer), Monday, 30 April 2012 04:52 (thirteen years ago)

They were definitely the "NOW That's What I Call Music" of my childhood, except they had very little in the way of editorial interference.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Yeah, apparently it was the punkest album ever made.

― You Don't Throw Oranges On An Escalator (Deric W. Haircare), Friday, 4 May 2012 05:34 (thirteen years ago)

Why is the Tommy James and the Shondells version of "Mony Mony" up there? Wasn't that the year the Billy Idol version was a hit? I'm confused.

But then, I confuse easy.

I remember seeing ads for this on the USA network in the late 80s. I was actually looking for this recently, to see what was on it!

― Poliopolice, Saturday, 5 May 2012 01:21 (thirteen years ago)

"You Might Think" should have won, btw
